A former spokeswoman for Bernie Sanders has blamed the vicious attack on a white disabled man in Chicago, that was carried out by four black assailants and broadcast live on Facebook, on President-elect Donald Trump. CNN commentator Symone Sanders says the attack was not really a hate crime but the result of Trump’s rhetoric. Police on Thursday charged four African-American suspects under hate crimes statutes in the alleged kidnapping and torture of a young mentally handicapped man in Chicago.

Almost exactly one month after taking the unprecedented step of suspending withdrawals from the Dallas Police and Fire Pension (DPFP), the Dallas city council is looking to "clawback" what it views as ill-gotten interest payments made to pensioners to the tune of roughly $1 billion.

A judge denied bail Friday for the four people who are accused of torturing an 18-year-old man with special needs and streaming it live on Facebook.

The so-called 'Facebook-Four' - Jordan Hill, 18; Tesfaye Cooper, 18; Brittany Covington, 18; and Tanishia Covington, 24; were each charged with four felonies each including 'hate crime'.

When ZeropointNow posted the absurd video of a white man being tortured by retrogrades, now known to be mentally disabled, people in the comments section didn't believe it was real. For one, they didn't think the criminals who conducted the live torture were that stupid to actually livestream it, effectively assuring themselves prison time. And secondly, people doubted their fellow human beings could be so cruel.

Enter the degenerate Don Lemon, excusing evil and cruelty on bad parenting.

It appears Newt Gingrich was right in his outrage at the hypocrisy surrounding the kidnapping and abuse of a mentally-ill white teen by four young black assailants. Despite the suspects shouting "fuck Donald Trump" and "fuck white people", Chicago police said today that they do not believe the attack was motivated by race, more likely due to his "special needs."
